Do you know its wrong? Israel has only done so out of frustration. Iran i believed bombed the refinery in Haifa, Israel first. Were US to bomb power plants and bridges, thats amounts to a war crime. Those are civilian infrastructure and not mil8tary. His threats to blow up power plants and bridges would simply worsen things for everyone global because Iran would hit back hard!!! sleek214: |
FreeStuffsNG:That is not true. The US and Israel shouldnt have attacked Iran. Thats enough. |
simpleseyi:Israel and US started the war. Israel saw Iran as easy game and together with the US would be able to achieve regime change. I dont like the Mullahs but the cockiness of America and Israel are solely at fault here |
Gboss247:They are totally different things. The job of a meter is to calculate the duration of power and charge you for it based on the cost per unit tailored to you, whether its subsidized or not. On the other hand, subsidized power means you are sold power below the cost price of generating the power and distributing it. So, i will combine both answers together for an example. For instance, lets say it cost N45 per unit to generate and distribute power and you are paying N25 per unit, that means it is subsidized by N20 per unit. Lets assume you are Band E Lets say use 20 units a month, that means you will pay N25 x 20 units which is N500. The meter will charge you N500. Lets say on the other hand you are a Band A customer and you pay N50 per unit while the cost of generating and distribution is still N45, that means there is even a N5 profit. Lets assume you use 20 units, the meter will charge you N50 x 20 units which is N1,000. The meter charges you for the power you use, whether it is subsidized or not. |
I would love the Strait of Hormuz to be opened but i doubt this report. You can not be seeking peace while still bombing Iran. They have refused to caputulate. |
If the Gencos are truly being underpaid by the government, this is unfair. They are being forced to carry the weight of electricity subsidies and thr indebttedness of large amount of monies owed by gocernment instittuitions. It is time the subsidies ends, all government bodies perhaps move to prepaid if it possible. I dont know the global best practixes in that regards. |
Tooreda:I stand by what i said. Iran is more fascist than Islamist. Iran is no Afghanistan or even Pakistan. The Iranian revolution is so 1970s. By 1990, Iranians realised the Mullah were all hubris and had nothing to offer. |
Did he say this? One should not believe anything without evidence If true, he should kiss his job goodbye. |
immortalcrown:Iran actually embraces western education. More females than males are in higher education, 55/45 in favor of women.They have a well educated population. Iran is more of a fascist state than it is Islamic. |
adamkkk:May your day be blessed! |
adamkkk:Please edit your 6th paragraph. You used "her" instead of "him" in about 3 places, completely confusing readers. |
Take him to court. Ensure he loses his seat. He is nothing but a thief. |
donleo92:Don't turn this around. I can smell a "Israel is God's country" fans a million miles away. Since Israel is God's own country, they will always be victorious. So, when it is even clear things are going against them, you will still live in denial I am a Christian. How can present day Israel be blessed by God when they rejected the Messiah or Christ? (Read John 3:18, Matthew 23:37-39) If you believe that they are still God's chosen people, that means your being a Christian is in vain. The one blessing giving them the victories is not God ( Read 2 Corinthians 4:4; 11:14, Revelations 12:9) |
donleo92:Yes, Iran is no superpower but they have America and Israel at the jugular. The US military brass opposed this war but Trump wouldnt listen. Now, the mess they predicted is now being fulfilled. The US has no choice but to negotiate with Iran. If this war continues, it will cripple the global economy. |
MiamiLord:The US and Israel underestimated Iran. That is now so clear. The US and Israel have far superior fighter jets, and plenty of it. Iran knew it couldnt face them one to one in the air. Iran focused on missile technology which are far cheaper than fighter jets and produced thousands of thwm. It also created a system where they would first send cheap drones and missiles to be intercepted by costly and limited interceptor missiles by the Iron dome, and David Sling. After wasting missiles, Iran now sends the ballistic missiles and cluster bombs which hit Israel hard. Israel is censoring what images of Tel Aviv gets out but from few pictures available, parts of it are in ruins. Iran is winning this war. The real losers are Trump, who was wzrned by the US military brass not to start a war with Iran The second is Netanyahu who been made to look rather powerless to end the reckless pounding of Israeli cities by the Iranians. |
CodeTemplar:Low taxes boost investments research has shown. This is not about inspiring confidance. It is about boosting investments. Even the Manufacturers Association of Nigeria (MAN) wants the company tax rate cut to 20%. Businesses by nature would prefer to investment in countries where they keep a larger share of profits. The former central European have used low company taxes to lure in massive amounts of Foreign Direct Investment. Search Google: "Does low corporate taxes boost economic growth and provide examples." |
It would take about 6 years before people can really fill the impacts of the present reforms. 7% economic growth is what is needed to provide enough jobs for those entering the labor market yearly. Government could still fasten growth by reducing the present company tax rate from 25% to 19%. It should also reduce the current capital gains tax rate from 30% to 15%. Lower taxes will accelerate an investment boom which could add an extra 1.5% - 2% to any forecasted number. |
HacheNoire:Oga, You are moving too fast. The present American problem is not permanent. When i say problem, i am talking about Donald Trump. He has a max of 4 years in office. Things will change a lot once he is gone. |
Eriokanmi:He can not achieve his mission with US soldiers in the Middle East cowering in hotels, rather than in their bases. Iran is very hard to break. I first thought there would be regime change in Iran but things have changed. Netanyahu may be the one kicked out. |
ResidentSnitch:The US military top brass warned him against going to war but the ego trip with Netanyahu was too hard to refuse! |
Heis00:If they are truly guilty, stating they are not guilty would simply increase the governments resolve to deal with them. However, any dearh sentence on them will never be carried out. |
Is this true? |
The guy has tried. The company may be 10 times its present size in 10years time. |
The tenant must be booted out. I hope the tenancy agreement sigmed waens the lessee of the consequences of unauthorised construction? In addition, Lagos State will also sanction the tenant. He has no government approval for the structures built. |
Israel should have sought a win-win silutiom with Iran. Had Israel decided to improve the lot of Palestinians in both the West Bank and Gaza for decades, these wars would never have happened. |
Adelabu isnt the problem. It is the 4tr owed to Gencos that is the problem. The Gencos cant afford to buy gas to generate power. |
LagosOrigin:Iran is playing dirty? Are you for real? I would die of shock if they did not. Any expert on Iran would lose their jobs if they thought Iran would play otherwise. Why did you think the Gulf States barred the US army from launching airstrikes from their countries? They did not want Irans wahala. Netanyahus claim to legitimacy in Israel is that he is the best person to safeguard the lives of Israelis. The Iranian bombing of Israeli cities has made it embarrassingly clear he cant. Dulllard Trump waa advised against starting this war by military high-ups but he refused to listen. His ego had been massaged so much by Netanyahu that he was fired up to do his bidding. Now, what they said has come to pass. |
This is transfered aggression. They know Gazans will be celebrating Iranian assault on Istaeli cities. They have probably rubbed it in already. The friend of my enemy is my enemy. |
Lovelink1991:IBB never, ever, ever, made that th3 statement. I was in Unilag at that time. People write rubbish all over the internet, and sadly, people just accept it, without verifying the source. It all plays into the prejudice that Yorubas are cowards. Yorubas played a massive role in kicking him out. Did Abiola not come back to Nigeria and land in detention from where he was murdered. Did his wife not get murdered? Eventually, IBB made up for his mistake of annuling the elections by making sure a Yoruba man became the next presidential candidate. Yorubas were pacified This is unlike the Kalu guy who jumped bail and fled to Europe. Or the clown who was urging violence back in Nigeria from his safe haven in Finland? Kalu was crying like a baby when he was sentenced to life. ![]() Stop being prejudiced. I really dont care about those IPOB clowns. |
Lovelink1991:Your profile picture is very funny IBB never made that statement. |
ekineme:The US has denied the claim that US soldiers. Lets put that aside. Israel has only 9.8m people. 2 million are Palestinian Israeli who are not part of the conscripted. Then you have the Haredi Jews who believe that their prayers is enough for the nation and wont enlist. I never said that the shortage was due to the death of IDF soldiers. If it has 40m persons or more, it wont be a problem. There is no way the IDF wont be stretched thin. I am neither pro-iranian or Israeli. What is Iran doing with nuclear power? It is an energy rich nation, an exporter large quantities of natural gas and crude oil, and by a coincidence, a nation that sponsors militant groups. I am not pro-Israel. The slaughter of innocent men, women and children in Gaza is why noboby speaks out against the bombing Iran is carrying in Tel Aviv, a lot primarily targetted at civilians. You pro-Israelis, always want to believe that Israel is invincible because they are Gods people. I dont believe that. How can they be Gods people when they rejected the Christ, and called for his death? Jesus wailed over Jerusalem calling it "the killers of the prophets and the stoners of those sent to her." (Read Matthew 23:37-39) How will God give them victories when they reject the Christ, and in turn God who sent him? This where their victories come from (]Read Revelations 12:9, 2 Corinthians 11:14) |
ekineme:Gaza 2.0? The IDF is already suffering from a lack of troops. How would they wage such a war? Iran isnt Gaza. The US sent their troops there and they were all captured. The US and Israel greatly underestimated the Mullahs. The US military warned Dulllard Trump not to go to war with Iran. Now, their reason why has come to pass. |
